That's interesting. Last year, I told a friend of mine that I often *feel*
like I'm making a racist statement when I say (as I sometimes do), "I found
her very attractive for a black woman."

It *sounds* demeaning, and I always want to catch the words as they come out
of my mouth, but on the other hand, I'm not sure I have to apologize either.
The fact is, I'm not typically attracted to black women, so when I *am*
attracted to one, it's anomalous *because* she's black.

Along the same lines, I'm not typically attracted to thin women, and I
sometimes say, "she was pretty attractive for a skinny chick." I don't think
that makes me weightist, I'm just not attracted to that sort of person,
right?
